re: Barack Obama cracks down on for-profit colleges: Why do it this way?

There are shitty worthless majors at for profits AND traditional colleges.

NYU ....

The above article illustrates how this is going on at traditional colleges. The girl in the article came from a poor background. Her mother was a waitress. And, yet, NYU allowed this girl to rack up $100K in loans majoring in ... get this ... Women's and Religious studies.

What the f*ck were they thinking ... NYU, the girl and her mother?


When someone is picking a major -- even at a highly respected school -- there should be some sort of counseling to determine if this major will allow a student to pay back the massive amount of debt that will be needed to get a worthless degree.
